         Whenever I'm weary   from the battles that rage in my head,      
         You make sense of madness  when my sanity hangs by a thread,     
  
        C             B7                 Em     D5       C#m7(b5)         
         I lose my way but still you seem to understand,                  
                 Am7     Dsus     D        G                              
         Now and forever, I will be your man.                             
                                                                          
         Sometimes I just hold you  Too caught up in me to see,           
         I'm holding a fortune    that heaven has given to me,            
         I'll try to show you each and every way I can,                   
         Now and forever, I will be your man.                             
                                                                          
         B7           Em      C       G            D                      
         Now I can rest my worries and always be sure                     
        Em        C           G    D/F#  Em    C        G              D  
         that I won't be alone anymore, if I'd only known you were there   
                     Am7            Cm(maj7)  
         all the time  all the time.
